Bones – Cellular & Physiology
Cross section structures
Cellular composition
Bone marrow Cartilage Fractures
Bone Cells
Osteoblasts – bone forming cells synthesize and secrete unmineralized ground substance and are found in areas of high metabolism within the bone
Osteocytes – mature bone cells made from osteoblasts that have made bone tissue around themselves. They maintain healthy bone tissue by secreting enzymes and controlling the bone mineral content; they also control the calcium release from the bone tissue to the blood.
Osteogenic cells respond to traumas, such as fractures, by giving rise to bone-forming cells and bone-destroying cells
Osteoclasts – bone absorbing cell – large cells that break down bone tissue – important to growth, healing, remodeling
Bone lining cells - made from osteoblasts along the surface of most bones in an adult. Bone-lining cells are thought to regulate the movement of calcium and phosphate into and out of the bone
Long Bone Structure
Compact Bone Outer Layer Haversian
System Spongy Bone
Ends of long bones
Cartilage
Red and Yellow Bone Marrow
The formation of blood cells, (hematopoiesis), takes place mainly in the red marrow of the bones.
In infants, red marrow is found in the bone cavities. With age, it is largely replaced by yellow marrow for fat storage.
In adults, red marrow is limited to the spongy bone in the skull, ribs, sternum, clavicles, vertebrae and pelvis. Red marrow functions in the formation of red blood cells, white blood cells and blood platelets.
Cartilage – Characteristics
Mostly water; no blood vessels or nerves
Tough, resilient New cartilage forms from chondroblasts
Heal poorly
Types of Skeletal Cartilage
Hyaline Cartilages: fine collagen fiber matrix- most abundant type- found in articular (movable joint) cartilages, costal cartilages (connect ribs tosternum), respiratory cartilages (in larynx & upper respiratory passageways) & nasal cartilages
Elastic Cartilages: similar to hyaline cartilage, more elastic fibers (very flexible) – found in external ear & epiglottis (larynx covering)
Fibrocartilage: rows of chondrocytes with thick collagen fibers; highly compressible with great tensile strength- found in menisci of knee, intervertebral discs & pubic symphysis
Fractures of the Bone
Know fractures based on diagrams or by x-ray recognition
Bone Repair Sequence Injury – broken blood vessels,
hematoma Invasion of blood vessels & generalized
cells (2-3 days) Fibroblasts develop (1 week) Chondroblasts develop Callus forms (4 weeks) Remodeling with osteoclasts (8 weeks)

MUSCULAR SYSTEM
Muscle Function: Stabilizing joints Maintaining posture Producing movement Moving substances within the body Stabilizing body position and regulating
organ volume Producing heat– muscle contraction
generates 85% of the body’s heat
Characteristics of Muscle Tissue
Excitability- receive and respond to stimuli
Contractility- ability to shorten and thicken
Extensibility- ability to stretch Elasticity- ability to return to its
original shape after contraction or extension
Types of Muscle
Skeletal Muscle
Smooth Muscle Cardiac Muscle
Location Attached to bone
On hollow organs, glands and blood vessels
Heart
Function Move the whole body
Compression of tubes & ducts
Heart contraction to propel blood
Nucleus Multiple, peripheral
Single, central Central & single
Control voluntary involuntary involuntary
Striations yes no yes
Cell Shape Cylindrical Spindle-shaped Branched
Types of Muscle
Skeletal Muscles Nearly 650 muscles are attached to the
skeleton. See muscle list for competitions. Skeletal muscles- work in pairs: one muscle
moves the bone in one direction and the other moves it back again.
Most muscles- extend from one bone across a joint to another bone with one bone being more stationary than another in a given movement.
Muscle movement- bends the skeleton at moveable joints.
Tendons - made of dense fibrous connective tissue shaped like heavy cords anchor muscles firmly to bone.
Tendon injury- though very strong and secure to muscle, may be injured.
Skeletal Muscles origin - Attachment to the more stationary
bone by tendon closest to the body or muscle head or proximal
insertion - attachment to the more moveable bone by tendon at the distal end
During movement, the origin remains stationary and the insertion moves.
The force producing the bending is always a pull of contraction. Reversing the direction is produced by the contraction of a different set of muscles.
As one group of muscles contracts, the other group stretches and then they reverse actions.

Skeletal Muscle Anatomy
Each muscle- has thousands of muscle fibers in a bundle running from origin to insertion bound together by connective tissue through which run blood vessels and nerves.
Each muscle fiber - contains many nuclei, an extensive endoplasmic reticulum or sarcoplasmic reticulum, many thick and thin myofibrils running lengthwise the entire length of the fiber, and many mitochondria for energy
Sarcomere sacromere -The basic functional unit of the muscle fiber consists of the array of thick and thin filaments between two Z disks. thick filaments - with myosin (protein) molecules thin filaments - with actin (protein) molecules plus smaller amounts of troponin and tropomysin. striations -of dark A bands and light I bands. A bands- are bisected by the H zone with the M line or band running through the center of this H zone. I bands- are bisected by the Z disk or line.

Sliding-Filament Model
Thick filaments, - myosin molecules contain a globular subunit, the myosin head, which has binding sites for the actin molecules of the thin filaments and ATP.
Activating the muscle fiber causes the myosin heads to bind to actin molecules pulling the short filament a short distance past the thick filaments.
Linkages break and reform (using ATP energy) further along the thick filaments.
Ratchet-like action pulls the thin filaments past the thick filaments in a.
Individual filaments - No shortening, thickening or folding occurs.
Muscle Contraction As the muscle contracts -
the width of the I bands and H zones decrease causing the Z disks to come closer together, but there is no change in the width of the A band because the thick filaments do not move.
As the muscle relaxes or stretches - the width of the I bands separate as the thin filaments move apart but the thick filaments still do not move.
Muscle and Tendon Injuries
Strains – injuries from overexertion or trauma which involve stretching or tearing of muscle fibers. They often are accompanied by pain and inflammation of the muscle and tendon.
Sprain - the injury near a joint and involves a ligament
Cramps – painful muscle spasms or involuntary twitches.
Stress-induced muscle tension – may cause back pain and headaches.
Muscular Disorders Poliomyelitis – viral infection of the nerves that
control skeletal muscle movement. Muscular Dystrophies – most common caused by
mutation of gene for the protein dystrophin which helps in attaching and organizing the filaments in the sacromere. Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy and Becker muscular dystrophy are the two most common types. The gene for dystrophin is on the X chromosome so the disorder is sex-linked.
Myasthenia Gravis – autoimmune disease affecting the neuromuscular junction. affecting the ability of the impulse to cause the muscle contraction. Administering an inhibitor of acetylcholinesterase can temporarily restore contractibility.
Effects of Exercise on Muscular System
Exercise helps muscles become more effective and efficient.
Tendons will become thicker and stronger High intensity exercise for short duration produces
strength, size and power gains in muscles Low intensity exercise for long durations will give
endurance benefits Trained muscles have better tone or state of readiness
to respond Exercise promotes good posture enabling muscles to
work effectively and helps prevent injury
Integumentary System
The integumentary system consists of the skin, hair, nails, the subcutaneous tissue below the skin, and assorted glands
Skin Functions
Protection from injury Protection against infection Regulates body temperature
Regulates water loss Chemical synthesis Sensory perception
Types of Membranes Serous Membranes
Line body cavities that have no opening to the outside
Secrete a watery fluid called serous fluid that lubricates surfaces
Mucous Membranes Line cavities and tubes that
open to the outside Synovial Membranes
Form the inner lining of joint cavities
Secrete a thick fluid called synovial fluid
Cutaneous Membrane – alsoknown as skin
Skin Layers and Attachment Layer
Epidermis Covers internal
+ external surfaces of body
Dermis Inner layer – Contains accessory skin structures
Hypodermis or subcutaneous layer Attaches the skin to underlying organs & tissues
Thin skin vs. Thick skin
Thin - 1-2 mm on most of the body and 0.5 mm in eyelids – Hairy; Covers all parts of the body except palms, soles
Thick - up to 6 mm thick on palms of hands and soles of feet; Hairless; Covers palms, and soles
Epidermal Cell Types Keratinocytes - 90 % of
epidermal cells are keratinized contains keratin (fibrous protein) protects and waterproofs the skin
Melanocytes - 8% of the epidermal cells produces melanin contributes to skin color and absorbs UV light
Langerhans cells - Arise from red bone marrow and migrate to the epidermis -Constitute small portion of epidermal cells -Participate in immune responses Easily damaged by UV light
Merkel cells - Least numerous of the epidermal cells Found in the deepest layer of the epidermis-Along with tactile discs, they function in sensation of touch
Epidermal LayersStratum corneum - nuclei and
organelles are destroyed by lysosomes and the cells fill with keratin
Stratum lucidum - only found in the palms and soles of feet 3-5 layers of clear, flat, dead keratinocytes -Dense packed intermediate filaments Thick plasma membranes
Stratum granulosum - cells start to become keritanized --Secretes lipid-rich secretion that acts as a water sealant
Stratum spinosum - 8-10 layers of keratinocytesskin both strength and flexibility
Stratum basale - Also referred to as stratum germinatum -where new cells are formed -
Growth of Epidermis Newly formed cells in the stratum basale
undergo keratinazation as they are pushed to the surface and accumulate more keratin during the process
Then they undergo apoptosis or death Eventually they slough off and are
replaced The process takes about 4 weeks Rate of cell division in the stratum
basale increases during injury
Dermis Second deepest part of the
skin Composed mainly of
connective tissues (collagen and elastic fibers)
Papillary Layer – Surface area is increased due to projections called dermal papillae which contains capillaries or tactile receptors -Epidermal ridges conforms to the dermal papillae
Reticular Layer -Contains hair follicles, nerves, sebaceous and sudoriferous glands
Hypodermis
(Subcutaneous) Attaches the skin to underlying organs and tissues
Not part of the skin - lies below the dermis
Contains connective tissue and adipose tissues (subcutaneous fat) for insulation
Infants and elderly have less of this than adults and are therefore more sensitive to cold
Skin Color
Skin Color
Genetic Factors – Skin pigmentation All humans have the same number of
melanocytes How much melanin they produce is
controlled by several genes Lack of pigment is called albinism
Environmental Factors - Exposure to sunlight
Volume of Blood – Hemoglobin in blood
Skin Pigments – Melanin
Located mostly in epidermisTwo types of melanin: eumelanin which is brownish black and pheomelanin which is reddish yellow
Fair-skinned people have more pheomelanin and dark skinned people have more eumelanin
Environmental Factors Affect Melanin Production
UV light increases enzyme activity in melansomes – increased melanin production
A tan = amount of melanin increases + darkness of melanin
Eumelanin = protection from UV radiation but pheomelin breaks down with too much UV
Too much UV radiation may cause skin cancer
Other Skin Pigments
Carotene = yellow -orange pigmentprecurser of Vitamin A – important for visionFound in Stratum corneum and fatty areas of dermis and hypodermal layer
Hemoblobin = oxygen carrying pigment in red blood cells
Skin Markings friction ridges: markings on fingertips
characteristic of primates - allow us to manipulate objects more easily-fingerprints are friction ridge skin impressions
flexion lines: on flexor surfaces of digits, palms, wrists, elbows etc.- skin is tightly bound to deep fascia at these points
freckles: flat melanized patches vary with heredity or exposure to sun
moles: elevated patch of melanized skin, of the with hair mostly harmless, beauty marks
Aging Skin
• In our 20s, the effects of aging begin to be visible in the skin.
• Stem cell activity declines: skin thin, repair difficult• Epidermal dendritic cells decrease: reduced immune
response• Vitamin D3 production declines: calcium absorption
declines and brittle bones• Glandular activity declines: skin dries, body can
overheat• Blood supply to dermis declines: tend to feel cold• Hair follicles die or produce thinner hair• Dermis thins and becomes less elastic – wrinkles
Skin Derivatives
During embryonic development thousands of small groups of epidermal cells from stratum basale push down into dermis to form hair follicles and glands
Functions – Hair & Nails Functions of Hair
Hair on the head protects scalp from injury and sunlight
Eyelashes and eyebrows protect eyes Nostril and ear hairs protect from foreign
particles Help in sensing light touch due to the touch
receptors associated with the hair root plexuses.
Functions of the Nails Grasping objects Manipulating objects Protects ends of digits from trauma Scratching
Hair Anatomy
Shaft: portion of hair that projects from skin surfaceRoot: portion of hair deep to the shaft
penetrating the dermis •Has 3 layers: medulla cortex cuticleBase of the hair follicle•Bulb: houses the papilla which contains the
blood vessels that nourishes the growing hair follicle.
•Matrix: responsible for hair growth and produces new hair
Arrector pili: smooth muscle •Extends from the dermis to the side of hair
follicle.Hair root plexus - dendrites of neurons which
are sensitive to touch
Hair Features & Texture
About 100,000 hairs are on the scalpAlmost every part of body is covered with hair
except palms of hands, soles of feet, sides of fingers and toes, lips and parts of genitals
Hair shafts differ in size, shape, and color. In the eyebrows they are short and stiff while on the scalp they are longer and more flexible. Over the rest of the body they are fine and nearly invisibleOval shaped hair shafts produce wavy hair, Flat or ribbon-like hair shafts produce curly or kinky
hairRound hair shafts produce straight hair.
Roughly 5 million hairs cover the body of an average individual
Hair Growth
Hair follicles grow in repeated cycles. One cycle can be broken down into three phases.
Anagen - Growth Phase Catagen – Transitional PhaseTelogen - Resting PhaseEach hair passes through the phases
independent of the neighboring hairs
Skin Glands Sudoriferous - sweat glands
Eccrine sweat glands -Secretes cooling sweatAppocrine sweat glands - during emotional stress/excitement
Sebaceous - oil glands –Acne - inflammation of sebaceous gland ducts
Ceruminous - modified sweat glands of the external ear that produce ear wax
Nails
Made of tightly packed, hard, keratinized epidermal cells
Consist of:Nail body: portion of the nail that is visible- Free edge: part that extends past the distal end of the digitNail root: portion buried in a fold of skinLunula: means little moon - Crescent shaped area of the nailHyponychium: secures the nail to the fingertip -Thickened stratum corneumEponychium or cuticle: narrow band of epidermis-Growth of nails is in the nail matrix.
